Qatar’s Best Kept Secret: Regency Sealine Camp

14th January 2018

Regency Sealine Camp is an intimate luxury camp in the desert of Qatar. This marvelous set-up is at the world’s natural powder-white desert, surrounded by cerulean waters. Truly, a must on the bucket list!

Sand boarding, ride the camels, feel the need for speed and hop on a quad bike, then experience the exhilarating dune bashing right before hitting the beach for some open water diving. All that in one camp, and yes, it has the amenities and service of a luxury hotel.

About an hour from Doha’s city center, I arrived at the pristine, lavishly white Sealine Desert. I was greeted by the Resident Camp Manager, Mr. Hamdy Raheem Khallaf.

What is your favorite Regency Sealine Camp memory?

Three events remain special and memorable that happened at Regency Sealine Camp: The opening of the camp last 2015 April as we invited guests from across the gulf region, the successful and heart-warming wedding party at the beach side of our two Italian guest couple and the exclusive party of QUMRA (Doha Film Festival) where more than 250 famous actors where invited.
